    Default Here Comes the Draft

    Man am I excited for Friday and Saturday. That is unless the Seahawks shock the world and take Billy at 32.

    I had been planning to write something up this week, but after bisonvilles favorite blogger Big Danny Gunderson put out his piece this weekend, I wasnt sure if I could compete with him. I said screw and still did my piece. Interested to hear where you think some of these guys will end up. What a fun class of seniors and hope they all have great adult lives.

    If I got any stats or info or spelling wrong let me know. I will let BV proofread for my before I release to the masses on twitter-world

    FWIW I felt it was encompassing and informative. I enjoyed watching more game film without all the extra overlays.
    Nice piece Neis.

    Excellent Summary! Much better job summarizing the potential of these seniors than that piece done by Mr. Gunderson.

    I personally pretty excited to see what happens by the end of this weekend... getting drafted is great, but I am also excited to see who becomes an UDFA. I really believe some of these guys are going to make NDSU proud at the next level.

    I definitely liked the part about Michael Murphy. He is definitely the one who nobody is talking about that has the best chance of making a team. Problem for him is even though he has been next to perfect, there are only 32 jobs available and that has got to be really tough cracking into that very elite group.

    He has been pretty damn good on special teams coverage

    Yes very good summary. My predictions for NDSU 2014 NFL Draft. Billy Turner - 3rd round - Carolina Panthers. Brock Jensen - 6th round - Green Bay Packers. Marcus Williams - 7th round - Cincinnati Bengals.

    I dont want to be a negative nancy on your predictions, but if Green Bay drafts Brock it will be the 7th round. Seems that is where they usually take a QB, if they take one at all.

    I predict Brock goes undrafted and signs a free agent contract with the Packers.
    It's OK to not be OK.

    Great piece! Love the videos with them. Thanks for taking the time to write that up!

    Here's some things I noticed that you might want to change before you release:

    Under Billy Turner, it says "Turner started nearly ever game..." Might want to change that to "every game..."
    Under Marcus Williams, is says "and set and FCS record..." Might want to change that to "and set an FCS record" Also, there's no period after (he also had 2 special teams TDs)

    If you leave tailgating hungry and thirsty, you're doing it wrong

    I am so sick of the Bison already. Win this, win that, blah, blah, blah. I'd really, really like to know how they do it. I swear they have to be the luckiest sob's on the planet. Just sick of this bs, just fed up.
